Morning Sketching

So, basically Jake and Jed are kicking my butt--we've decided to do some morning sketching around Provo a couple of days a week. Here are some of my results.

A local burger stand...And even though we've been going out to paint architecture, I have this weakness for bikes from the 1970s. These two are Schwinns, even though I prefer European models such as my Raleigh import or a nice Bianchi. When torn between a love of bikes and sketching, what's better than sketching bikes?Although, it is sad to see them in such disrepair--I want to adopt every mistreated bicycle I see, and love it back into working order, but our small two-bedroom apartment won't allow it.

Man, I need to learn how to use watercolors properly. These look awesome! And P.S. I got your comic book and it is also thoroughly awesome. And I appreciated the fancy original sketch you added. Thanks!

Anthony, your middle bicycle sketch perfectly recreates the sensation of my eyes focusing and defocusing in real life. When I look at the bike in the foreground, it's like the BG just slips peacefully into blur. I love it!
